proceeds

proceeds
That which is received for something, whether in cash or other thing of value. Phelps v Harris (US) 11 Otto 370, 380, 25 L Ed 855, 858. The term as used in a statute requiring labor claims to be first paid out of the "proceeds of sale" of property of an insolvent means, in case of a receivership, what remains after payment of the costs and expenses of the receivership necessary to the carrying out of the trust by the receiver as the hand of the court. Sloan & Z. Co. v Lyons Ref. Co. 290 Pa 442, 139 A 133, 55 ALR 275. As used in a will or other trust instrument the term, used alone, is generally regarded as equivocal, meaning either (1) the income, product or profits from property, or (2) the fund arising upon the sale of property; its meaning in the particular case is to be determined primarily from the context of the instrument in which it is used and the subject matter to which it is applied. Anno: 1 ALR2d 194.
